Globe at Night Light Pollution Survey for March 13-22

North-western sky at 9 pm local daylight saving time in Australia showing Orion.

Woops, nearly missed this!

Globe at Night, the international light pollution survey, is running its Third survey this year from March 13-22 (it's US HQ'd that means we Australians/New Zealanders have until the 23rd). There is one more to come on April 11-20. Visit their website for easy to follow instructions and charts to estimate how dark your sky is.
